HONEYFEST SAN DIEGO

Various locations
www.honeyfestsd.org

Honeyfest San Diego is the region's first event celebrating the crucial role that bees play in sustainable food systems. The festival promotes awareness of the complex and vital relationship between bees and humans by exploring the benefits of bee products, the art of beekeeping, and the issues around environmental risks to bee populations. The threeday event offers workshops, fine food, product-sampling, film screenings, art and performance. Participation in Honeyfest San Diego supports the efforts of small-scale beekeepers in San Diego and Kenya.

By Participating in the Honeyfest San Diego events, you enable Grow Strong (growstrong.org) to work alongside local farmers and beekeepers to produce more local food for households, communities, and schools as a part of a healthier, sustainable and just world. Over the past year, Grow Strong has been fundraising as part of a $20,000 goal to establish a community food hub in rural Kenya beginning with the Grow Strong Learning Center and Demonstration Farm.
